Stratifications and iterative differential equations are analogues in positive characteristic of complex linear differential equations. There are few explicit examples of stratifications. The main goal of this paper is to construct…
In this paper we present a comprehensive mechanism for the emergence of strange attractors in a two-parametric family of differential equations acting on a three-dimensional sphere. When both parameters are zero, its flow exhibits an…
Pilgrim's Finite Global Attractor Conjecture has been verified for polynomials [1], but remains open for general rational maps. In this paper, we prove the conjecture for a family of rational maps obtained by gluing two PCF polynomials…
We announce the discovery of a diffeomorphism of a three-dimensional manifold with boundary which has two disjoint attractors. Each attractor attracts a set of positive $3$-dimensional Lebesgue measure whose points of Lebesgue density are…
The generalized Floquet exponent and the attractiveness portrait (or A-portrait for short) of the attractor and of the smallest invariant closed set are suggested to be used for the study of dynamical systems. Based on the A-portrait, some…
We provide a new algorithm (called the grid algorithm) designed to generate the image of the attractor of a generalized iterated function system on a finite dimensional space and we compare it with the deterministic algorithm regarding…
Let $d$ be a positive integer, and let $\mu$ be a finite measure on $\br^d$. In this paper we ask when it is possible to find a subset $\Lambda$ in $\br^d$ such that the corresponding complex exponential functions $e_\lambda$ indexed by…
In this paper we study continuous parametrized families of dissipative flows, which are those flows having a global attractor. The main motivation for this study comes from the observation that, in general, global attractors are not robust,…
We study new relations between countable iterated function systems (IFS) with overlaps, Smale endomorphisms and random systems with complete connections. We prove that stationary measures for countable conformal IFS with overlaps and…
We develop a qualitative-dynamics framework for general Iterated Function Systems (IFSs) on locally compact spaces. Our approach extends to IFSs a framework recently developed in the semiflows setting by James Yorke and the present author…
New geometric methods for fast evaluation of derivatives of polynomial and rational B\'{e}zier curves are proposed. They apply an algorithm for evaluating polynomial or rational B\'{e}zier curves, which was recently given by the authors.…
The Sierpinski tetrahedron has a remarkable property: It is projected to squares in three orthogonal directions, and moreover, to sets with positive Lebesgue measures in numerous directions. This paper proposes a method for characterizing…
We construct an iterated function system consisting of strictly increasing contractions $f,g\colon [0,1]\to [0,1]$ with $f([0,1])\cap g([0,1])=\emptyset$ and such that its attractor has positive Lebesgue measure.
In this paper we prove a generalization of Istr\u{a}\c{t}escu's theorem for convex contractions. More precisely, we introduce the concept of iterated function system consisting of convex contractions and prove the existence and uniqueness…
We consider finite approximations of a fractal generated by an iterated function system of affine transformations on $\mathbb{R}^d$ as a discrete set of data points. Considering a signal supported on this finite approximation, we propose a…
In this paper, we construct a family of Bernstein functions using a class of rational parametrization. The new family of rational Bernstein basis on an index $\alpha \in {\left(-\infty \, , \, 0 \right)}\cup {\left(1 \, , \,…
The connected part of a metric space $E$ is defined to be the union of non-trivial connected components of $E$. We proved that for a class of self-affine sets called slicing self-affine sponges, the connected part of $E$ either coincides…
We discuss a variation of Takagi curves based, however, more on algebraic than geometric principles. Namely, we construct functions of loops in a special binary representation. The graph of these functions usually has chaotic and fractal…
This is the second part of our study of the dimension theory of $C^1$ iterated function systems (IFSs) and repellers on ${\Bbb R}^d$. In the first part we proved that the upper box-counting dimension of the attractor of any $C^1$ IFS on…
Let T be Takagi's continuous but nowhere-differentiable function. Using a representation in terms of Rademacher series due to N. Kono, we give a complete characterization of those points where T has a left-sided, right-sided, or two-sided…
